Crucifixes by Rio Yanez
On the eve of San Francisco’s Open
Studios in the Soma area, inspiration
struck. I was out shopping for some art
supplies in the Mission and came across
what would become the materials for the
work you see below. Somehow I connected
the dots to use sticker books and
crucifixes together and was very happy
with the results. They got a good
reaction during my open studio at
SomArts, I priced them at $25.00 each
and sold a Spider-Man crucifix on the
second day to a school teacher. My first
batch consisted of only 3, I’ve since
sold or given away others and have now
remade them.
Since my open studios presentation I’ve
made more crucifixes and am now
contemplating what direction to go with
them. My current body of work is below.
